Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess-Chapter 320: Old Leaf
Chapter 320: 320: Old Leaf
Divine Doctor. This is an individual that even he, one of the oldest elves in this village, considers a legend. The ability to bring back a patient’s life from the brink of death. Curing all kinds of illnesses and diseases. Even terminal diseases like cancer are simple for a divine doctor.
True to its words of being divine and a doctor. It is an individual that can be said that everyone needs to meet in their lives at least once. But now they are telling him that the divine doctor of this era is this young lady before him. As an almost thousand-year-old elf, he couldn’t believe it at all.
Well, that was until Yue Xuexia finished with him. The old elf extended his hand to Yue Xuexia, who reached out to check on his pulse. Yue Xuexia closed her eyes, listening and feeling her patient’s pulse.
With that short touch, Yue Xuexia is now capable of spreading his aura into someone else’s body without them knowing.
Her thoughts are: ’He is indeed not lying. His aged organs are strangely functioning, albeit weak, and his life energy is almost spent. The only way for him to live is through the use of longevity pills.’
However, the longevity pills she had in her possession could only extend one’s life for three years, and eating three meant 9 years, and the longevity pill would no longer have any effect on extending one’s life.
She took her fingers away from the old elf’s hand, and with a wave of her hand, a jade bottle appeared on the table. She plans to give three longevity pills to this old elf, but only after saying the following words.
The old elf looked confused, as he already thought that the young lady before him had already given up on pretending to try to save him. After all, he didn’t believe that she was indeed the Divine Doctor.
"What is this? Medicine? I am not sick, though," said the old elf.
Yue Xuexia stared at him and said, "Three longevity pills will give you nine more years to leave. However, after that, no matter how much longevity pills on this level eat, it would no longer extend your lifespan. You will need a longevity pill of a higher grade or another treasure to extend your lifespan."
The divine doctor wanted to say more things about the effects of the longevity pills, but the patient stopped listening after he heard that these three pills could extend his lifespan by another nine years.
The old elf only wanted revenge, and he didn’t need so many years to continue living. After all, he had lost his family and loved ones to that Ancient Tree God and the demonic Titanoboa. His life will be fulfilled as long as he kills them.
Yue Xuexia and the others watched as the old elf only ate one pill but returned the rest to them.
They heard him say, "One pill is enough. Three years is too long and enough for me to take my revenge. If not for this pill, I would have to die three days from now on, and that would lead to me failing to take my revenge. Divine Doctor, thank you. This is enough for me."
Seeing the serious expression on the old elf’s face, Yue Xuexia sighed and took back the two pills for longevity. She would never force someone who is determined to die to live. She was only there to treat them with their ailments.
"Alright. As you wish, we will definitely inform you when we will attack the center of this rainforest. We still need to head to the last village," said Yue Xuexia.
The old elf was a bit stunned by the divine doctor’s words about the last village, but he gave his payment for her treatment.
"First, take this Thunder Ore and the location of its mine as payment for the longevity pill."
"Second, please allow me to join your team. You guys plan to kill those two, right? I will definitely help you do it!"
Yue Xuexia glanced at Shen Jueyang, Taiyang, and Tan Bingyu, as well as the other representatives of the other races, nodding their heads in agreement to the old elf’s request to join their team.
"Alright. Welcome to the team. How should we call you Senior?" asked Yue Xuexia.
The old elf said, "You can call me old Leaf. There is no need to call me senior."
"Okay. My name is Yue Xuexia. Please call me in any way you wish. The ones behind me are Shen Jueyang, Taiyang, and Tan Bingyu. They are my friends and subordinates."
"Pleasure to meet everyone," said Old Leaf in first greetings.
"Old leaf, your expression changed just now when Xue’er mentioned the last village. Is there something about it you can tell us?" Shen Jueyang asked.
The old leaf said, "The last village is owned by the Beastmen. However, during the last war against the Ancient Tree God, their whole race was killed. That Beastmen race is a warrior race. Even their females and children can fight. They were the first target of the Demonic Titanoboa. He ate that lot and left not even one to continue the line. His last village is empty."
"Xue’er, the last village is empty. Are we still going?" Taiyang asked.
Yue Xuexia said, "I wanted to see for myself. After that, we will prepare for the war."
"Mistress, I will send messages to the Ape Race and Fae Race so they can finish up their war preparations," said Tan Bingyu.
Yue Xuexia said, "Alright, Old Leaf, is your race joining the war?"
This question made the old elf frown, and clearly, this reaction alone shows that he doesn’t get along with the rest of his tribe members.
"Little Doctress, what do you think of the village leader you’ve just met? You can answer honestly," said Old Leaf.
Yue Xuexia said, "Slippery, a bit fake."
The old elf looked as if she got the jackpot prize. This means her first expression wasn’t wrong at all.
"You have sharp eyes! That’s right. Those masked faces of theirs deserved a good beating. Do you know who told me about your group and asked me to harm you?"
"It was them. They wanted to take away your blessings and other treasures. Those greedy mongrels. They wanted to sate their greed instead of planning on taking revenge for our lost comrades and family. They have degenerated!"
"A letter from the Fae Queen had been received by them. This house is full of traps; formations were arranged ahead of time after receiving that letter. They wanted to kill you for your treasures."
"I will not deny that; that was indeed also my plan. But this action of mine stems from me wanting to extend my life even for just a few days so I can kill those two bastards and fight against them all over again."
Old Leaf confessed about his original plan and his tribesmen’s plan. For the sake of his revenge, he had planned everything but failed in the end. Moreover, his desire to fight again was approved by Yue Xuexia and even helped him extend his lifespan, which was supposed to end.
Taiyang patted Old Leaf’s shoulder and said, "We don’t blame you. As long as you help us fight, we don’t take it against you."
"Thank you!" responded Old Leaf to Taiyang’s words.
Shen Jueyang asked, "What do they plan to do to us?"
"Kill?"
All of a sudden, the small house they were in had been broken after a rain of elemental attacks had fallen on it. When the group left the destroyed room, they were surrounded by the elf race and his subordinates.
However, the act of surrounding people and attacking all at the same time is Yue Xuexia, and her team is vigilant. The one in the lead of the group of elves is this village leader. The one who had welcomed them with a smile from before.
Yue Xuexia said, "What is the meaning of this?"
The elven race’s leader led his troops just so they could attack and capture anyone from her group.
"We wanted your treasures! Bring all of what you have, and we will spare your lives," said the village leader.
The threat in this village leader of the Elven Rave sounds more like a villain than Old Leaf, who puts himself out with everything just so he can get what he wants. The elementals with the contract of the Elven race all appeared and knew that the whole village was targeting the humans that entered this city illegally.
The old leaf said, "Who are you threatening? These people are my guests!"
"Senior Leaf, you can’t hoard everything on your own. The treasures these guys possessed can be divided among us. We will definitely give you your share. So help us kill them." The elven village chief was so shameless to appear in public without a mask.
Old Leaf retorted, "Nonsense! I will never harm my savior and her friends!"
The elven village chief said, "Is that so? Then... let’s just fight and get what we desire for ourselves."
"Human child, give me your blessings!"
